Notes:
Summary Studies on acute and chronic serum sickness in mice were carried out to clarify the effects of immune complexes on the brain. These complexes were prepared with either anti-ferritin or anti-galactocerebroside rabbit antibodies and were injected i.m. into C57/BL mice. They were shown to be deposited in the choroid plexus, subependymal regions and meninges, and were accompanied by proliferative and destructive changes. The probable allergic mechanisms involved in the pathogenesis of these lesions are discussed.
